Wow, I am shocked by how many people (here and on Scout) are selling Nic's receiving and open field abilities short...maybe some of you need to watch the film I watched, where Nic was used frequently on underneath routes and screens and was very dangerous with the ball in his hands. His straightline speed may not be the best at this point, but he is hardly a slow, lumbering, blocking TE, his lateral movement is phenomenal and he can create space as well as any of the other OH TEs in this class. Add to that he is probably the best protection/short yardage TE in the state and you get a TE who gives you multiple options at the line.
I didn't even both responding on Scout because the stuff over there has turned comical. You can go back to page 1 of this thead and see that 22 and I were high on Nic from the start...and if you are looking for a great breakdown of Nic's game, read this premium article: Scout $ |

I'm not questioning his talent, I'm questioning how urgent the need is for a TE in this class.
It just seems to me like we could wait until next year to get a TE(or two!). |

I think the only urgency is that Ohio is thick with awesome TEs this year..but next year does not look as strong at TE inside the state.

The biggest area where Clemson and Pitt were not equal on paper was distance from home...

I know this is a somewhat esoteric question, but does anyone know the quality of his blocking? Any film of it out there or scouting reports? It seems to me like most TE's at the high school level are judged upon their pass catching ability and athleticism, for the most part. Is it possible that blocking for the TE's is something that is expected to be taught at the college point rather than early on like it is for OL? Thanks.

JT contacted Nic last night and asked if he was willing to talk and you know the rest. Quote:
.......and just for a reminder, one TE was switched from another position last year and another was recruited as a TE, but the staff isn't quite sure if that is the position he will stay at. Plus, you can always use a TE of DiLillo's ability. Ohio is stacked at TE this year. |

Not sure he meant that he was switched back to LB, just that he was a LB and switched to TE. That's how I read it anyway. We have a plethora of LB and I would be really surprised if BS was switched back due to depth issues at TE.
